Draft pick ledger
not with their team
Who owns every first and second-round pick for the next 7 drafts, and on what terms. Where a pick is protected, the 2027 table turns the protection into a number: the chance that it actually conveys, computed from the same lottery odds as our lottery board. The full wording of every clause is on each team's page and in the hover of every cell; the ledger is verified against the trade record once a week.

"Conveys" is the probability the pick changes hands under its protection, given each team's exact chance at every lottery slot; a playoff team's pick (15–30) conveys for sure when the protection ends at 14.

Who owes whom
own first-round picks headed elsewhere · 30 obligationsPick ownership is compiled from the public trade record and checked once a week; protections and conditions are quoted in the league's own terms on every team page. Second-round picks are listed with their ranges (31–55, 56–60) where a deal splits them. The Trade Machine will accept picks as trade chips next; until then, contracts and cap are on the salaries page, the odds on the lottery page, the rumors on the Trade Radar.
